Hope this is in the right place, I find these forums a bit confusing.

It would help if you had an OP that said something...

No problem with confusion.  As a matter of fact, I'm confused about you post.  Is it a statement of disgust or a question?  Or C) none of the above?

I think it is intended to be funny.  The United Planets just voted to send the galaxies' criminals to a prision on a Borg world, where they will doubtless be assimilated, and aid the Borg in their inexorable conquest.. 

I laughed at least :).

I think the point is the combined vote for Vulcan (29660+32637) is greater than the votes for Borg (34551) and yet still Borg won the vote.

You missed the 34510 voted the player gave for himself. The math is correct, at 64061 for the Borg and 62297 for Vulcan.

That Species 8472 votes for Borg is a bit unusual... they'd rather "purge the galaxy" of them

I was told there would be no math...

You'll notice that each species voted for the species that they hate above all else to boot. All that's missing is for the Cardies to vote for Bajor........ (and for the Gorn to do something)

A perfectly corrupt and incompetent organization--just like the UN.  :D   Looks like it's working great to me!
